Whatever happened with the "Vampire Lord" polymorph?

There's something I might actually pay for.

Are you talking about the one from Skyrim? Isn't Molag Bal the vampire lord?

I'd assume the one from Skyrim. Someone found data for a Vampire Lord polymorph about a month or two ago.

Sweet. Maybe an update for Orsinium DLC?

Hopefully never. Adding stupid things that some idiot is going to RP with... waste of time.

Nothing happened to it because it was never announced or officially confirmed. There were pets buried in the game files that didn't surface until many months later. Nobody knows if or when we get this polymorph.

There was also a mentioned Werewolf Lord polymorphs in that datamine but just because something appears doesn't mean it is real (Besides what's that supposed to be a winged werewolf) I find it doubtful you would ever see polymorphs that would let you turn into creatures who are not even humanoid shaped this includes the Vampire Lord who if you look closely isn't really Humanoid with its wings and talons and what not, That particular Vampire Lord form Harkon has probably isn't the Vampire Lord form that would appear in ESO if ever, if one did it would be from another bloodline with a more Humanoid shape and it would be much smaller to scale with the player, Also he didn't sacrifice 1000 souls to become just another "Pureblooded Vampire" odds are that form is unique to him anyway, its probably why you don't see Lamae Bal or Count Verandus ever in those forms.

Also to who said Molag Bal is a Vampire Lord...Molag Bal is not a Vampire Lord infact he isn't even a Vampire, he is a Daedra Lord, he created there kind but has very little in common with them.

Molag ball is sometimes called the father of vampires. But it is correct that Bal is not a vampire.

I hope that these polymorphs do not happen. I think it would cheapen the overall experience of being a vampire or werewolf.

Of course, I also think BOTH of those systems should get a really extensive overhaul at some point so they include the different strains of their diseases and so they are actually blights and not boons.

Techcnally they are curses, a disease doesn't bring you back from the dead, the infection you can contract from a vampire during a vampire attack is the disease which carries the curse with it.
